We recently partnered with our delivery partner, GenusPlus Group, to complete a crucial 𝗿𝗲𝗳𝘂𝗿𝗯𝗶𝘀𝗵𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗼𝗻 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝟵𝟱 to help reduce bushfire risks in the Hunter region and improve network reliability. Refurbishment work was carried out on 14 towers and a section of the line between Newcastle and Killingworth. 🦺With highly skilled teams and the same strong commitment to safety, we delivered essential upgrades to support a more reliable and resilient energy network. Project Manager Md Rifatul shared: “The job included replacing insulators and fittings, earthwire bonding, spacer replacements, conductor vibration damper replacements, replacing tower bolts, abrasive blasting, painting, and stub leg remediation works. 👏 A big thank you to the Genus Infrastructure team and our Delivery team for their dedication to excellence and safety. 👇Check out the video from GenusPlus to see the project in action! #EnergyInfrastructure #SafetyFirst #renewables #energutransition Md Rifatul Islam Leva Mehregan Hamid Taherinia

It’s a wrap on the 2025 Energy Consumers Australia Foresighting Forum! The Foresighting Forum is a one-of-a-kind energy conference that puts consumers at its centre. This year’s theme, 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱 ⚡, explored critical topics including energy equity, fair value, justice, and ownership. It emphasised the importance of addressing the diverse needs and expectations of all Australians to create a more affordable, clean, and reliable energy system. We were proud to sponsor the ‘Consumer Advocate Program,’ which enabled a range of consumer and community advocates to attend and actively participate in the Forum, ensuring their voices were included in the conversation. 🎤 🌟It was inspiring to hear from thought leaders, industry experts, and consumer advocates about the opportunities and challenges in building an energy system that benefits all Australians. 🌍 📖For valuable insights, please visit: https://brnw.ch/21wQOWv #FF25 #ChargingForward #EnergyConsumers #renewables Jane Deane Belinda Ackermann

🚁 Flying drones near our infrastructure? Here’s what you need to know! Did you know that flying uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs) like drones, kites, or model aircraft near Transgrid infrastructure can pose safety risks? Our substations, transmission lines, and telecommunication sites require clear airspace to ensure safe and reliable network operations. To help keep everyone informed and protected from potential risks, we’ve developed a UAV Fact Sheet https://lnkd.in/gD9ggrBc outlining: ✅ No flying safety zones ✅ Safety and compliance requirements ✅ Pre-flight checklist 📌 For more on our Uncrewed Aerial Vehicle Fact Sheet and Easement Guidelines, visit: https://lnkd.in/g-ZjPV6F #DroneSafety #UAV #InfrastructureSafety #StaySafe #communitysafety

🔙 Throwback Thursday with Transgrid! 🔙 As our transmission network continues to grow and evolve to meet the ever-increasing energy demands of NSW and the ACT, we continue to innovate and adapt to a changing energy landscape.⚡️🔋 👀One of those innovations can be seen in our substation equipment, where we progressed from maintenance intensive oil or air blast circuit breakers to modern gas insulated circuit breakers that need far less maintenance, and operate to switch off network faults within 50ms to maintain system security and reliability. 👉Find out more about our major transmission and innovation projects here: https://brnw.ch/21wQEPY #throwback #throwbackthursday #energy #history #transmission #technology #makingitpossible
